Sushi Zanmai...From Malaysia, not Japan

We needed a quick team lunch near our Kuala Lumpur office today, and this was one of the only places available. At first I got excited, thinking that it was the same Sushizanmai from Japan (they even pitch themselves as having "more than 20 years of experience in Japan"). But upon closer inspection, it became clear that it was not the same thing.

Sure, it had kaiten conveyor belts like the real Sushizanmai, but so do places like Sushi Tei, and this was definitely more like the latter than the former (think: mayo-drizzled sushi...ugh!). Too bad I won't have any time to get some real local food on this quick overnight trip to KL.
